The main idea behind the design of the lighting system Cloud of light was to create a prototype of a floor lamp, which could be passible to integrate with the "intelligent home" automation system. The project was inspirited by a rain cloud and a data cloud. Natural signs - a kind of associations - are based on the relationships between natural phenomena, for example a cloud brings to mind the image of rain. The project evokes such associations.

THE MAIN GOAL OF MY CONCEPTION WAS TO SELECT MATERIALS FOR THE OBJECT AND FIND THE COMMON DENOMINATOR. THE INFLUENCE OF THE CHOSEN MATERIAL ON THE RECEIVER’S EMOTIONS THROUGHOUT PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF THE USED MATERIAL. CHINA IS THE MOST NOBLE MATERIAL FROM AMONG CERAMIC MASSES, THUS IT SEEMED APPROPRIATE AS IT GIVES THE POSSIBILITY OF SHAPING IT IN ALL SORTS OF FORMS, IT IS WHITE ALSO TRANSLUCENT, AND IT HAS GLASSY CLADDING THAT COVERS THE PRODUCT. IN REATION TO THE CHANGING LIGHT IT HAS A VAST RANGE OF COLOURS, FROM MONOCHROME TO OTHER TYPES OF REFLECTED COLOURS RUNNING THROUGH THE SUFACE OF THE SHARD. FROM THE VERY BEGINING I ASSO

Lighting System

1. Helio diode HaMa - 0404 DV (12-16 V) with a current of 1400 mA.
2. Heatsink in aluminum, on which two diodes are placed.
3. Two transistor modules.
4. A power supply with a 24 V current output.
5. Raspberry Pi.
6. Two IRF driver modules.
Brightness adjustable by PWN signal, variable pulse signal, programmable:
• The ignition time and the blanking time of the diode.
• The light is emitted at a 120 ° angle.

ON THE OTHER HAND, THE USE OF PREFABRICATED COLOURED GLASSY PIPES AND COLOURED CAST GLASS IS TO EVOKE THE ASSOCIATION WITH THE RAIN. THE WOODEN, OAK BASE WHICH IS THE COMPLEMENT HAS DIRECT REFERENCE TO THE GROUND, TO SOMETHING STABLE.
